Heat vs Pacers! The official ECF series thread!

[JfizzleBlazer]

although wade and lbj have five fouls too....

 

[illmatic99]

Classic case of overthinking by Vogel there. Defense is switching? Then you better have Roy in there. Sigh. Doesn't usually happen to him

 

[illmatic99]

O M G

 

[julius]

that was an odd couple seconds there.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

wooowwwww. George to the line for 3 FT's, Wade fouls out.

 

[julius]

not really sure that was a foul in the playoffs.

 

[illmatic99]

Clutch man

 

[Pinwheel1]

George continues to bail Indiana out. Wow 3-3 in that pressure cooker is impressive

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Paul George with ice in his veins. Loved the guy the past few years, but dude is becoming one of my favorite players this season.

 

[Pinwheel1]

You know the refs will call a foul here on Indiana

 

[Pinwheel1]

All they have to do is have James drive to the basket and the refs will blow the whistle. Please prove me wrong

 

[illmatic99]

WOW

 

[julius]

that was pathetic defense there.

 

[PapaG]

Horrible horrible defense by George, and horrible coaching to not have Hibbert standing under the basket instead of on the bench.

 

[illmatic99]

Vogel. smh. Hibbert shoulda been in there. Again.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Not impressed with the pacers coach. James should have been doubled with Wade on the bench. And no Hibbert?

Idiot

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Fucking Lebron!

But what an epic game!

This is going to be a fantastic series.

GO PACERS!

 

[PapaG]

All they have to do is have James drive to the basket and the refs will blow the whistle. Please prove me wrong

Tough to blow the whistle when nobody touches him on a simple lay-up.

 

[MickZagger]

Lebron has such a douchey demeanor.

 

[Charcoal Filtered]

Tough losing with your max contract center sitting on the bench when LBJ drives twice late.

 

[KingSpeed]

What happened to Stay between your man and the basket?? Make LeBron shoot a jumper. You've got to be kidding me. Worst defense ever. I'm appalled. Glad I'm not a Pacers fan.

 

[donkiez]

What the fuck was that all about? If thats how they are going to play Hibbert they should have let us have him.

 

[PapaG]

Paul George's shirt has been attacked by a mob of gigantic paramecium!

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Holy Hell. How many chances does Indiana need? They pissed away each opportunity. That was some Blazer-like statue D there.

 

[KingSpeed]

Would someone explain to me WHY Hibbert wasn't out there? What was the thinking?

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Would someone explain to me WHY Hibbert wasn't out there? What was the thinking?

??????!!!!!! I got nothin.

 

[Rhal]

Would someone explain to me WHY Hibbert wasn't out there? What was the thinking?

I have to assume that Vogal didn't think they could win another OT if Hibbert got called for a foul but that kind of thinking is screwed up when you have the lead with 3s left.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Would someone explain to me WHY Hibbert wasn't out there? What was the thinking?

Because Hibbert isn't quick enough to stay with Bosh and properly defend him taking a last-second jumper.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Because Hibbert isn't quick enough to stay with Bosh and properly defend him taking a last-second jumper.

They may want to re-think that strategy. If there was less time I would agree as more than likely only a jump could beat you. But when you have enough time to drive to the rim, you needs your rim protector in there. Make Bosh take that last shot, not LJ.

 

[illmatic99]

Rewatched the last play a few times. I take back my Vogel bashing for not having Hibbert in there. They were probably expecting a jumper, and Hibbert can't closeout, so it makes sense to not have him in there. The play before, though, he shoulda been there.
